@MaryGladys676 @CDTD_ @henryki03942119 My conclusion is that all policy makers in our communities MUST be involved in the journey to eradicating SGBV. Its not too late we can begin NOW

@CDTD_ @MaryGladys676 @henryki03942119 Men are very vocal on the decision making tables thus making them champions of change especially those highly esteemed in the as agents of Change.

[Mary Gladys @MaryGladys676]

@CDTD_ @henryki03942119 @jemusuya My conclusion is that: Boys and young men shouldn't be left out when fighting against SGBV because they are a resourceful tool in doing this. Also, we should gear towards prevention of SGBV rather than avoiding. Remember prevention is better than cure. Thanks

#MenagasinstSGBV Thank you to our speakers for a very informative chat this afternoon @MaryGladys676 @henryki03942119 @jemusuya any concluding remarks to advocate for male inclusion in fight against SGBV?

[JANEPHER OMASABA @jemusuya]

@CDTD_ @henryki03942119 @MaryGladys676 @MoyoteKenya @NetworkShelters It's a high time we normalise conversations at community level on SGBV and have more men engaged

[Mary Gladys @MaryGladys676]

@CDTD_ @henryki03942119 @jemusuya @MoyoteKenya @NetworkShelters @unwomenafrica @UraiaTrust By educating our young men and boys about the importance of avoiding SGBV and also interrupt sexist and discriminatory language at all levels

[Centre for Domestic Training and Development @CDTD_]

Boys and men should take the lead in critiquing the objectifying of women and girls in our media #MenagainstSGBV thank you @MaryGladys676

[Mary Gladys @MaryGladys676]

@CDTD_ @henryki03942119 @jemusuya @MoyoteKenya @NetworkShelters @unwomenafrica @UraiaTrust critical and question.

By being critical and questioning how the media portrays girls and women, whether on Tvs, online, in magazines or in music videos. The media regularly uses images of violence against women, and sexually exploits girls and women to sell products.

[Mary Gladys @MaryGladys676]

@jemusuya @CDTD_ @henryki03942119 @MoyoteKenya @NetworkShelters Infact we should even engage our local administration when carrying our some functions geared towards fighting SGBV

[Mary Gladys @MaryGladys676]

@CDTD_ @henryki03942119 @jemusuya @MoyoteKenya @NetworkShelters Some of the solutions will include:
There will be an increased and improved number of girls being educated up to a higher level like college or university rather.
Also, the dignity and respect for girls and women will be upheld in the society in general

Question 1: What are some of the factors that foster gender inequalities in Kenya? @jemusuya @henryki03942119 @MaryGladys676 #MenagainstSGBV

@CDTD_ @henryki03942119 @jemusuya @MoyoteKenya @NetworkShelters Okay, we know that both boys and men are the majorly the root cause of SGBV among female gender, so when they got engaged in fighting this problem ,it will be easier to arrive at a stoppage towards SGBV.
